Fisher and Schwartz - the Chandler Jones effect or something to worry about?
The last couple of weeks have been rough on the tackles for whatever reason. Outside of the penalties, it's the pressure that is particularly concerning. Against the Browns, it was evident but against the Cardinals, it was pronounced.
Is it just the edge rush being better for those two teams? If so, where was Von Miller? They've faced great edge rushers and not struggled like this. Is it the domino effect of injuries in the middle radiating out to the tackles? Anybody else concerned about this going forward? |

It was really only Fisher who was bad from what I could tell—and yes, that’s probably because he was facing Jones and Garrett on a regular basis. They’re ass kickers.

Like I said, the opposition pass rushers have been fierce but then again, why did they blank Von Miller if that's all it is? |

Jones is pretty good. He gave Fisher problems all day, but and I'm sure I'll get blasted for this, some of it is on Mahomes. A few times he hit the back of his drop and stayed there. He needed to step up in the pocket.
Fisher had Jones pushed around the back end, but Pat didn't climb the pocket. Maybe he couldn't because of inside pressure. |

They’re gonna see plenty of inside pressure next Monday so the tackles have to step up big. |

Jones and Garrett are two of the best in the league.

Probably the absolute 2 best. They had not allowed a sack all year outside of the last two weeks. I also agree that Pat owns some of that. He is still learning. I am excited about our tackle play this year.
The Rams outside rushers have been awful this year. If Fisher struggles on Monday night, I might start to get worried. |

Jones is damn good and Mahomes didn't help on a couple of the sacks by holding the ball.

There were definitely a few plays where our beautiful boy held the ball too long. But Fisher got his ass kicked

Mahomes definitely was at fault a couple of times. But yeah, the Cardinals we're in the backfield for most of the game. I was really surprised to see how well their defense played yesterday. This is the same team that lost 45-10 to the inept Donks with their crappy line and Case friggin Keesum at quarterback.

I still think Fisher should bulk up. He's been having a good season but was clearly over matched.
On the flipside of the ball the Cardinals tackle kept tackling Dee Ford. Eric Fisher didn't resort tackling Chandler-Jones. |

A number 1 overall pick LT should be able to not get owned consistently by premiere pass rushers. Also, name me the last big game you can recall without a Fisher penalty?
